Italy ruling tells millions with Italian roots they have lost the right to citizenship Since Italy became a country in 1861, there has been a surefire way to know who is and isn’t an Italian citizen: look at their parents.

So how many of the players on Team Italy in the WBC just lost their citizenship?

Angus King: “There is a clear winner in this war, Vladimir Putin & Russia — estimates released a few hours ago are that Russia has reaped $6 billion — about $400 million a day from the increase in oil prices & the easing of sanctions — I think the record should show the real winner so far is Putin”

Kevin Gausman will be the #BlueJays’ Opening Day starter.

Gausman deserves this in every way, both on and off the field. In the final year of his five-year deal in Toronto, he’s been one of the best signings in club history and a model teammate.

Ontario to end funding to multiple drug consumption sites, including 2 in Toronto, forcing them to close | CBC News The Ontario government says it will end funding to at least three provincially funded drug consumption sites in the province, including two in Toronto, in a move that is drawing concern from advocates...

In case you missed it, late yesterday afternoon the Ontarion government pulled funding and told the remaining provincially funded supervised consumption sites will be forced to close by June 13.

More of our friends and family members and neighbours are going to die because of this awful decision.

Remember that you are more likely to become disabled than not.

You can be disabled by illness, injury, climate disasters, war, police brutality, unmitigated pandemics, lack of access to healthcare, etc.

Disability justice is for us all, and it’s foundational to all other forms of justice.

🧵 Should the decision to rush the closure of the Ontario Science Centre have been secret?

It was freedom of information requests to a minister's office that revealed the move was planned more than a week earlier, but rushed out to hide behind the long weekend. #OnPoli
